Various factors like aging, weight changes, pregnancy and breast-feeding, affect the elasticity of breast skin. When the decreased amount of tissue in the breast is replaced by fatty tissue, the breasts may lose elasticity and bag down by the force of gravity. This may also happen due to improper care of the breasts, such as - not wearing a bra or direct sunlight. Although it is not possible to avoid this natural process, it is clear that no woman wants to have their breasts hanging.
